This 1:72 diecast model of Gerhard Barkhorn’s Messerschmitt Bf 109 pays tribute to one of Germany’s most accomplished fighter aces. Barkhorn joined the Luftwaffe in 1938 and flew in the Battle of Britain, where he began his long combat career in the aircraft he considered his favorite—the Me 109. Over the course of more than 1,100 missions, he was shot down nine times but achieved an astonishing 300 aerial victories, making him the second-highest scoring fighter pilot in history.

After the war, Barkhorn continued his military career, eventually reaching the rank of Generalmajor in the post-war West German Bundesluftwaffe.

This model comes prebuilt and includes display accessories and a stand, making it an essential piece for collectors of Luftwaffe and WWII aviation history.

Grading Criteria

Our grading is based mainly on the physical condition of the model itself, including paintwork, attached parts, repairs, visible wear and overall presentation. Box condition and missing separate accessories are noted separately where applicable.

Mint (10/10)
- As new, with no visible flaws to the model itself.

Near Mint (9/10)
- Very light signs of handling, storage or display only.

Excellent (8/10)
- Light wear or a few tiny marks, but still displays very well.

Very Good (7/10)
- Noticeable wear, small chips or rubs, but still presentable as a display piece.

Good (6/10)
- Obvious overall wear, visible marks or paint loss; better suited as a display or filler piece.

Fair (5/10)
- Heavy wear, larger areas of paint loss, repairs or clearly visible flaws.

Spares / Repairs (4/10 or below)
- Significant damage, missing attached parts, broken components or best suited for restoration/spares.

If a separate accessory, stand, leaflet, certificate or optional part is missing, this will be mentioned in the listing notes. The model may still receive a high grade if the model itself remains in strong condition.
